The Big Boo Cast, Episode 330

This week Melanie and I share our March Madness reactions (personally it has not been our finest basketball hour), Melanie talks about the Ben Rector concert, and I pass along some interesting (to me, at least) information I learned on TikTok.

We also discuss a very exciting skirt, Melanie updates us on Spring Break ’23, and it’s my turn for Five Favorites.

Enjoy, everybody!

The Big Boo Cast, Episode 329

Well, it’s March Madness, and as you will hear in this episode, Melanie is mad about her Aggies being a 7-seed in the tournament. There may be a bit of a rant, which means I laugh a whole bunch. We also answer a listener’s question about what kinds of sports fans we are (here’s a hint: animated), we discuss our weekends with our college kids, and we talk through some recent fun finds at Trader Joe’s.

If you listen to the intro of the episode, you’ll hear some exciting (for us, at least) save-the-date news, and it’s Melanie’s turn for Five Favorites.

Enjoy, y’all!

The Big Boo Cast, Episode 328

It’s good-times-a-plenty this week as Melanie and I recap her trip to College Station, my trip to Slidell, Louisiana, and that time I cooked for 27 of Alex’s closest friends. We also break down our thoughts about a true crime documentary we both watched recently, and I explain why I pondered my personal need for a redemptive biscuit this past Saturday afternoon.

Plus, Melanie shares what she’s loving about a new TV show, and it’s my turn for Five Favorites.

Hope y’all enjoy!

The Big Boo Cast, Episode 327

On this episode Melanie and I discuss my trip to Starkville for the State / A&M basketball game (it was a dandy, it was) and our tendencies to arrive VERY early to sporting events. Plus, Melanie went to a Nelly concert at the rodeo, and I have an exciting Target remodeling update. Although “exciting” might be a really generous term.

We also do a quick reading check-in, Melanie shares her reaction to her new oh-so-70s sunglasses, and it’s my turn for Five Favorites.

The Big Boo Cast, Episode 326

This is apparently an episode where Melanie and I feel compelled to share our enthusiasm about all manner of things: basketball coaches, basketball uniforms, sunglasses, and the oranges that have absolutely rocked my world. Plus, Melanie talks about her time at the rodeo in San Antonio and I do a small bit of whining about the lack of A/C at the State / Kentucky game.

We also discuss the new books that are on our To Read piles, and it’s my turn for Five Favorites.

The Big Boo Cast, Episode 325

This week Melanie and I discuss what we talk about before we actually start recording each week’s episode (my mama would say that it’s when we really get into the “nitty gritty”), how P has absolutely been influenced in terms of how he hosts a guys’ weekend, and how legit Texas tacos have made their way to Birmingham. You will not be surprised that we also spend a good deal of time focusing on the latest in college basketball because Joe Lunardi is apparently the boss of us right now.

We have lo, another book update because I have started reading the book about the fairies (who am I?), and it’s Melanie’s turn for Five Favorites.

Hope y’all enjoy!
